Description
- This application claims benefits from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/688,929 filed Jun. 9, 2005, the contents of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates broadly to indoor lighting. More particularly, this invention relates to a night light which can also be used as a task lamp.
- 2. State of the Art
- Most people turn off all or most of the lights in their home when going to sleep. Often, however, it is necessary to awaken before dawn and find one's way in the dark until a light switch can be found. To solve this problem night lights were invented. The classic night light is a small incandescent bulb (approximately 5-7 W) mounted on an AC plug with a switch and a translucent shade. It is plugged into an outlet close to the floor and provides barely enough light to avoid tripping over obstacles. It must be manually turned on and remains on all night or longer if it is not turned off in the morning. More modern night lights have sensors which turn them on in a dark room and turn them off when the room brightens. However, they are still located near the floor and don't illuminate much else. In addition, although they turn off in the morning, they do stay on all night. More recently, night lights have been provided with motion detectors so that they only operate when needed. However they still illuminate little more than the floor. Therefore, when finding one's way to his/her destination (typically the bath room or the kitchen) one must still find a light switch which is far from the night light and is typically coupled to a light which is much too bright for eyes which have been dilated by the darkness. Stated another way, night lights are too dim and not located well and other house lights, while located well, are too bright.
- It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a lamp which is multi-positionable in a variety of directions.
- It is another object of the invention to provide a lamp which is activated by motion.
- It is a further object of the invention to provide a lamp which does not light in response to motion when ambient conditions are bright.
- It is also an object of the invention to provide a lamp which can be used as a night light, a task lamp and a desk lamp.
- It is an additional object of the invention to provide a lamp which can be located in a wide variety of locations.
- It is still another object of the invention to provide a lamp with an aimable motion sensor.
- In accord with these objects, which will be discussed in detail below, the lamp according to the invention includes a base having a battery compartment, a selector switch, and an aimable sensor. A gooseneck extends from the base and terminates in a lamp head containing one or more LEDs. The LEDs are electrically coupled to a circuit in the base which is coupled to one or more batteries in the battery compartment, the selector switch, and the sensor. According to the preferred embodiment, the sensor includes both a light sensor and a motion sensor and is aimable through an arc of at least 90°. The base preferably includes a removable suction cup so that the lamp can be mounted on a vertical surface or secured to a horizontal surface. The selector switch allows for three modes: off, always on, and auto-on-off. In the auto-on-off mode, the lamp lights when the motion sensor detects motion unless the light sensor detects that the ambient light is above a certain level at which the lamp is not needed. Upon detecting motion in a dark room, the lamp will light and stay lit for a predetermined time, e.g. 90 seconds, and then automatically turn off. The power supply is preferably four AA batteries, but an optional AC adapter is accommodated. In auto-on-off mode, the lamp makes an ideal night light for use in the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, or hall. The lamp can be positioned virtually anywhere with the sensor pointed toward the expected approach and the lamp head pointed toward what is to be illuminated. The LEDs are very bright and efficient. They will operate more than 250 hours when powered by four M batteries. In the always on mode, the lamp provides bright light for a desk for the office or at home for crafts or hobbies. In auto-on-off mode, it also serves well as a closet light or a garage or basement light.
- Additional objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reference to the detailed description taken in conjunction with the provided figures.

FIG. 12 is a rear side elevation view; -
FIG. 13 is a top plan view; -
FIG. 14 is a bottom plan view; and -
FIG. 15 is a high level schematic diagram of the electronic components of the lamp; - Turning now to the Figures generally, the
lamp 10 according to the invention includes abase 12 having a battery compartment 14 (seen best inFIG. 4 ), aselector switch 16, and anaimable sensor assembly 18. Agooseneck 20 extends from thebase 12 and terminates in alamp head 22 containing one or more LEDs 24 (seen best inFIG. 14 ). TheLEDs 24 are electrically coupled to a circuit 26 (FIG. 15 ) in thebase 12 which is coupled to one or more batteries 28 in thebattery compartment 14, theselector switch 16, and thesensor assembly 18. - According to the preferred embodiment, the
sensor assembly 18 includes both alight sensor 30 and amotion sensor 32 and is aimable through an arc of at least 90° as shown inFIGS. 6-8 . The base 12 preferably includes a removable suction cup 34 (seen best inFIG. 5 ) so that thelamp 10 can be mounted on avertical surface 1 as shown inFIG. 2 or secured to a horizontal surface (not shown). - The
selector switch 16 allows for three modes: off, always on, and auto-on-off. In the auto-on-off mode, the lamp lights when themotion sensor 32 detects motion unless thelight sensor 30 detects that the ambient light is above a certain level at which the lamp is not needed. Upon detecting motion in a dark room, thecircuit 26 will light the lamp and keep it lit for a predetermined time, e.g. 90 seconds, and then turn it automatically turn off unless additional motion is detected. The power supply is preferably four M batteries 36 (FIG. 4 ), but an optional AC adapter (not shown) is accommodated by ajack 38. In auto-on-off mode, the lamp makes an ideal night light for use in the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, or hall. The lamp can be positioned virtually anywhere with the sensor pointed toward the expected approach and the lamp head pointed toward what is to be illuminated. The LEDs are very bright and efficient. They will operate more than 250 hours when powered by four AA batteries. In the always on mode, the lamp provides bright light for a desk for the office or at home for crafts or hobbies. In auto-on-off mode, it also serves well as a closet light or a garage or basement light. - Turning now to
FIGS. 4, 5 , and 14, it will be seen that thebattery compartment 14 has anaccess door 40 which is opened and secured with a live hinge catch 42. The access door is provided with a raised centralcircular portion 44 which defines akeyed hole 46. Theremovable suction cup 34 is provided with a keyed stem 48 (seen best inFIG. 5 ) which is received by thehole 46. It will be appreciated that the reason why thecircular portion 44 is raised is to provide a space above the batteries to receive thestem 48. - As seen best in
FIG. 5 , thebase 12 is provided with fourfeet portion 44 of theaccess door 40. As seen best inFIGS. 3 and 5 , thesuction cup 34 is provided with aradially extending tab 58 which can be pulled to facilitate removing the suction cup from a surface. - There has been described and illustrated herein a portable mountable indoor lamp having a positionable lamp head and motion and light sensors which can be aimed. While a preferred embodiment of the invention has been described, it is not intended that the invention be limited thereto, as it is intended that the invention be as broad in scope as the art will allow and that the specification be read likewise. It will therefore be appreciated by those skilled in the art that yet other modifications could be made to the provided invention without deviating from its spirit and scope as claimed.
